Take 3 min & help Cindy Sheehan for FREE: Camp Casey needs BANDWIDTH!
As most of you know, "Gold-Star Mom" Cindy Sheehan
is currently encamped in a ditch, along a
rural road in Crawford, Texas.

Many of us are on our way there in person;
thousands more have sent money and supplies.

But the brave citizens at "Camp Casey" ran out of something
VERY IMPORTANT about an hour ago.
Something we can ALL give them for FREE.

BANDWIDTH!!!!

Many of you already know that DUer "TexasLady" is there with Cindy.

TexasLady broke her limit on her PhotoBucket account when she tried
to post her photos today.
DUers stepped up and offered their own accounts;
so the pics are on the WWW...
FOR NOW

But this is a MAJOR moment in history, our 2 accounts are not gonna be enough for the MILLIONS around the world who NEED to see this!

SO, I am asking all DUers to donate THREE MINUTES!

You don't even need to MOVE!
Don't get up, don't reach for your wallet!

Just open a new window in your browser,
GOOGLE "photobucket", and start a FREE account.

Then PM "TexasLady" with the album-name and password.
She can use it, and pass it along to the other folks
who are taking pics down there and want the world to see!

I know that DU will rise to the occasion,
as it always does.

Thank you all!

1. DUer benburch offered space on his server to the Crawford Peace House...
...but I don't know if anyone took him up on it. You may want to PM him.

Godspeed + NGU.

8. Thanks, I will pass BenBurch's offer along to...
....the folks who know how to do those kind of things.

And ALSO
to the folks (like me) who have NO idea how such things work,
and gaze upon BenBurch like a peasant catching a glimpse of the KING.

7. How do you PM someone?
If it's instant messaging I don't have the software. If it's an option within DU I can't find it. Help, anyone?

16. Thanks anyway!
I got to read your post and I appreciate the pointers.

btw, are you British? Only asking because I never heard the phrase "Bob's your uncle" till I lived in the UK.

18. No, I'm not British, but I just love that phrase!
Edited on Wed Aug-10-05 04:19 AM by dicksteele
I have _NO_ clue who "BOB" is or was,
but I envy his Neices and Nephews!

KnowWhatImean, Vern?

(PS: I am also totally jealous of "deadparrot" because his DU handle is so much cooler than mine! But that's a THREAD for another day.)

22. LOL, I thought the same thing when I saw 'deadparrot'
I woulda named myself 'fishslap' or 'lumberjack' if I'd thought of it at the time.

The skinny on 'Bob's your uncle' from word-detective.com: "Bob's your uncle" is a way of saying "you're all set" or "you've got it made." It's a catch phrase dating back to 1887, when British Prime Minister Robert Cecil (a.k.a. Lord Salisbury) decided to appoint a certain Arthur Balfour to the prestigious and sensitive post of Chief Secretary for Ireland. Not lost on the British public was the fact that Lord Salisbury just happened to be better known to Arthur Balfour as "Uncle Bob." In the resulting furor over what was seen as an act of blatant nepotism, "Bob's your uncle" became a popular sarcastic comment applied to any situation where the outcome was preordained by favoritism. As the scandal faded in public memory, the phrase lost its edge and became just a synonym for "no problem."

I had to look it up 'cause my husband the Brit didn't know for sure either.

29. Morning friend
Damn, I wish there were some way I could get there. I'm tapped out, I contributed more than I should to help those brave people down there. Can't get any time off anyway so I'm doing what I can. What a wonderful lady Cindy is. Gotta go to work now.
